Figure 2. Kaplan-Meier survival curves for distant disease-free (A) and overall (B) survival in three subgroups of the LABC patients. These Kaplan-Meier curves illustrate outcomes among patients with locally advanced noninflammatory breast cancers who were breast-conservation candidates after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (BCT) versus those who were not conservation candidates (MRM). These are compared with survival curves for inflammatory breast cancer patients, all of whom were treated with mastectomy after chemotherapy.
